Earl of SII A FT . ESBUItr laid on the table•a copy of, the.report of :the Commissionws appointed to inquire into the practice of the Court of Chancery. Lard BEXI.IN presented a petition froth the Justicos of Peace of the County Palatine or „ Lancaster aguitat the Nan.. chester Btl.l.—Atljourned. .` thirty and, forty thousand pounds within a few months. By the advice of the Finance Committee, the Paymastership of the Forces, which was formerly a two=fold office was con fided to one person, with a salary of 2,0001. a-year, and a resi dence,. whilst the Treasurership of the Navy was reduced, and theoffice required to be filled by some Member of Government bolding a situation to which no salary was attached.' In this state it &MI6 to his own hands, with 1,0001. a. year less salary, to which reduction he could see no objection, anti indeed, he did not see on what public ground that officer sittaild continue to have a residence at the public expence, which was now very de. sirable thy other public officers' convolience, and the transae. Son of general public business. The' truth was, that this was a very improvident way for providing for the convenience of in dividuals in office, for,this house, with the allowance of coals anti candles, was worth 7001. a-year. If the salary were, how ever, to be cut down, perhaps the Committee would be of opinion that placing the salary at 2,6001. a-year, and abridging it of a residence, would in sortie degree assimilate it to the Salary of the present Pa master of the Forces with his 2,000/. a-year and house. IF! did not think this would bone farthing too much for the Treasurer of the Navy. If he could but place his hand ors& few sinecures he should• be very glad, and ()Ibis goodwill and that of his colleagues in this way he thought a pretty convincing proof had been afford e d i n t h e i r re d uct i on o f those very high offices, the Commissioners of Customs and ltx cise in Ireland a nd Scotland. Rm taut ho should be of him u,ir if, in order 'to conciliate the favour of the Committee, and obtain their assbn't to give 5,00/. n:yewr 'to a thilbtr of Go :vernment, whom all admitted eminently deserved most liberal remuneration for his zeal and talents, Ileshouldpalter with his duty, and permit the services of,the 'freesia:or of the Navy to be treated asifthat office wete a sinecure. Mr. TIERNEY confessed he was anxious that the vote on this occasion should be unanimous. All it appeared were agreed that the President., of the Board of Trade ought to have the 5,0001. a-year, and no man was more satisfied with the ability and acquirements of the, Right Hon. Gentleman th a n himself. He had himself filled the office of Treasurer of the Navy, and he must say, that he considered it then no sinecure, though he dill contrive being pretty industrious odo it by applying hini self kir about an hour a day. If he had gone shares however with the clerks in the different offices in their' businesx and overlooked all himself, he might perhaps have amply occupied all his time when he held it three and twenty years ago ; anti as to the eerioneness of the responsibility incurred, he could only assure the Committee that it was not until five years after he had resigned this office that he had the satisfaction of finding himself absolved front responsibility and receiving his quietus from the Board.—(llear !)—Now, it was his wish that every one should haven just remuneration for his labour and trouble; but it was least of all Nage his intention to give to Govern.. inent two offices with large salaries to dispose of, instead of one. The Report of the Committee on Sinecures had recom mended that a few, of high amount of income, should be retained, in order to give these sinecures to persons who held situations to weich no salary was attached. Thee the Board of Comm! had no salary attached to its Nimbus; and it was thought very proper that it should be so, because it wou ld be held by th e T reasurer of the Navy ; thus it went on for five or six yeare after the arrangement in 1792. Lord Melville, though a Minister, felt no difficulty in doing the duty of the. one, and this too when he was applying himself moat setlu_ lowly to the vast and relent& improvements he was then . introducing with respect to the Navy. Now be would con. sent to put the thing on this footing between the. Committee and the Right Honourable Gentleman, that if he would but say that he would not do the duty of both Treasurer of the Navy and President of the Board, or that they were too much for him, he should be content, and give his vote in favour of the resolution.. It was said, only take into you r considera. tion the vote for the Presidentship of the Board of Trade, and leave the consideration of the other subject alone for the pre. sent. Rut then perhaps the House, when it next sat, might find some one snugly seated in the Treasuryshipoehom it might be a very difficult job to get out of it when once laugh.) He was gather disposed to arrange it thus, that the Right. Hon. Gentleman xhoitld be allowed 300/. per annum for his services in the Department of the Tummy, and xuperadd the 2,000/. a year for the additional labour imposed by the Presidency of the Board of Trade, which would, without giving up the point as to the increase of parentage, leave him in full posecesion Of the salary now desired for tint with all the honours pertain ing to both. Mr. II USKISSON said, it did not devolve on him very for. tunately to give an opinion as to what ought to :be the salary which he himself should personally enjoy ; but he had one duty tp perform, which was of a very Agreeable: nature, and that watte to express hie teratitude for the favourable and flat tering manner in which his poor merits anti abilities bed been spoken of on both aides - of the House. He could only state, that perhaps, from incapacity for business, or perhaps from want of industry, he did feel the duties of the two offic es to press rather hardly upon him. When he considered the • great pecuniary tesponeibility of the office, end the great vile', riety of different accounts coming under its care, the accounts of the Victualling Office, of the Transport Office, of the Out ports, and others, he could not feel assured, from the very li. Lmited attention he was enabled to pay, that his ditties, so far as they related to the business of the Navy, were adequately per formed.. lie had the advantage of being assisted by a Pay. master, who possessed in the highest degreeavery qualifica tion for carrying on the business of the office in the best pos sible way. But he could not help asking himself whether, it' he should have the misfortune to lose that meritotioueindividual, he should himself possess that detailed information—informa tion connected with every colony and otitport, and he might say with every ship, which would become necessary for him on the introduction of a - new Paymaster into the office ? If he ' should have to appoint another Paymaster, however gratifying eemight be to exercise the patrenage of appointing a friend to 101'0 ce so respectable, he should be at a loss how to exercise it. His friend could not know the details of official duty—it would be out of his power to instruct him, so that the two per. eons at the head of the department would have to collect the particulars of their duty from inferior offieers on different d . vi. sons of the establishment. Was that a situation in which the public would like to continue a great public department ? Would any individual, for instance, select a Banker, who transferred all the cares and duties of his employment to a Deputy ? Such was the situation of the office. It compelltd by circumstances to appoint a new Paymaster, he did nut know whether he would not devolve upon somebody else the responsibility of such an appointment. He thought he had given something like an answer to the statements of the Right Honourable Gentleman. He felt that he owed a re sponsibility to the public whom he served, and to his Sove reign who lied appointed hint to his situation, for the proper discharge of its ditties. Under that responsibility he could not be satisfied with the present situation of the office. He slid not say that he had no tinie to attend to the duties of the office, but he would say, that he could not attend to them in a, Wee , satisfactory to hineselfe Ile knew that, as a public servant, the nubile were entitled to all the services which his heelth and hie humble talents enabled him to render ; but whatever the Horace might think proper to do with the office, he trusted they would not leave him in possession of - the office to which he could not adequately attend. The office was in itself an extremely desir able one. It enjoyed a good deal of humble patronage, and hail beau held by Statesmen whom he might well be proud to follow. The situation of President of the Board of Trade car ried with it no patronage, anti its duties were such as to find hill employment fur its possessor. --(fleet, hart)--'The Right lion. Gentleman had stated that, when he was Treasurer of the Navy, he performed ether duties. - Ile did not doubt that the zee! and industry of the Right' Hon. Gentleman had always been such as to make him ready and anxious, whether in or out of office, to tender every possible service to the country. It Must, however, be remembered, that the Right Hon. Gentle man had not held any other official situation. . fie certa i n ly could not find time to attendiiny of those Boards or Guencils of which the Right None Gentleman had spoken. The House dieposeas it liked of the office; but if the office of Pay. master should become vacant, he was net a person who would say that he, would retain the Teeasurership,whether h e h e ld any other office or not.____ . _ . - illr.q.cilailit.tirr said the subject WSIA rendered a powerful one, by the enamor proceeding which bad been adopted. On all such occasions they heard the same argumenh There was u hy tt y tt a great deal said of the responsibility, and th e l a b o uri t , l think it was found necessary to force and the anxiety or any office which it was thought desirable t, maintain. Oile wo these very painful ant, 6.141.# offices upon men, but he b e li eved .i tl ere was seldom omen thiticulty in rattail% competent person s quite willing to untivrti.ke them. Did the Right lion.

He could not consent this creation of another placeman in the Houae of Commens. It was the opinion of the Sinecure Committee ; that the offieeof Treasurer of the Navy should be left in existence. with • view to its duties and emoluments being blended with those of, angle other office of large and important duties. He had never herd tul atm that Ministers wanted to get two plecemen into that House instead of one, that the two offices were incompatible...-. This was not a time to increase the burthens of the people. enter thousand pounds .might be called a trifling sum, but they bad often in that House contested smaller sums, particularly when* principle was involved. If no pledge was offered that the Treat aunthip of the Navy should be modified in a satisfactory mime per, he should be compelled, however reluctantly, to, vote against the original resolution. He amid not but observe, that the Rig it lion. Gentleman opposite, assumed a different tore toe, night, from that which he adopted last night. Why if he in tended to insist upon his propositions, not press them last night? Perhaps, there ware good reasons for this sufficiently under.: stood by those who were in the habit of noticing incise took place in the House. They had not availed themselves of the !advantages they tetseeesed, from respect to the Right Hon. Gentlemen. Why promote dissension, wh en u p on t h e mainiebe :jest they were all agreed.

Air. CURWEN spnke a few words in opposition to any in crease of the public burthens. Sir M. W. RIDLEY recommended that the Paymaster of the Navy should be made an efficient officer for discharging the duties of Treasurer with such S. salary as might be considered adequate to his new duties. He had always been an advocate for the ample remuneration' of efficient public servants. He was desirous of some means being afforded him to record his opinion that 5,0001. should be granted to the President of the Board of Trade, but that the charge for the office of Treasurer of the Navy should be reduced. It' no such opportunity could be afforded, he should be compelled to oppose the Resolution. Sir I. COFFIN sale that he had been ten years Commie- sinner at Sheerness, and he was competent to say that the office of Treasurer of the Navy was no sinecure. An annual expen. - ditureof seven millionsof public money was tinder his care.— The Right Honourable Gentleman had performed the duties in one hour etieh day. He believed if he held the office it would fill up the best part of his time. Mr. DENISON objected to the resolution ; but he rose principally to ask a queation of the Right lion. the Chanealloe of the Exchequer. They had ken told that during the time he held the office of Treasurer of the Navy there had been two de faulters to the amount of 35,0001. ; now he wished to know whether this money had been paid by the securities of those de , faulter, or by the Right Hon. Gentleman hirteself., or if the public had lost it; in the latter case what would become of the responsibility of which they had heard so much ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied, that • the tirat of the two delimiters, who was deficient about 24,0001. or 25,000/. they had been fortunate enough to find in the Uniteti States of America, where, by dint of threats, fur they had uo' other power, the officers who pursued hint had made him give up 14,0001. or 15,0004 'which remained in his poeeession. his sureries paid all for which they were responsible. The other case was not so considerithle—it amounted to about 6,0001. All that was received was from the securities ; the public lost the rest. lie was called upon by the Treasury, and very properly called upon, to explain; and the losses were found to have arisen from an imperfection in the law, to remedy which he brought in a Bill. The responsibility, however, ratted upon hint ; and if he could not have convinced the Treashry that it was not his fault, he must have sustained the loss. 'He felt convinced, then, that he had not been stall to blaMe, and- was exonerated, as he thought, very justly.—(Hear, hear!) Mr. DENISON appealed to the Hense it his.carse had not been made out by the very statement of the Right Honourable Gentleman.—(llear s hear !) Mr. IIUskISSON said that the responsibility extended not merely to wilful deviations !him -duty, but to eriOtl•arieing from negligence or incapacity. Mr. AI3ERCROMBY said that there wits no man in public' life, for whom he had a greater reapect, or whose talent and ins dustry had in his opinion conferred greater benefits. upon the country than the Right Hon. President of the Board of Trade: Early in hitt political career itched predicted that he would attain to great eminehce end distinction in the State. That prediction had' been fulfilled, and he sincerely rejoiced that it had' been SO: With these feelings it would be painful to him to diseent tom the present Resolution. B ut i t was a questionof money and of principle, and in both points of view he mute ; treat it with re: ference to its merits. Ile had heard nothing to convince his understanding that the two offices went incompatible. < flacon sidered the argument which had been employed to convince the House that they were so, as one of those official fallacies,, which the present and all future Ministers, would use and urge. Tile Honourable Member for Surrey had subjected the responsi bility of office to a very fair testeea test, however, which it could not sustain. Nothing could be easier than a responsibility which extended only to onsets only personal conduct. They. Tad some experience to guide their opinion as to the. duties of Treasurer of the Navy, for the late Lord Alelville had held that office in conjunction with that of Secretary of State. He olnee jected to the increase of offices to be held by :Wernher of 'Par liament, as he thought that the influence of the Crown in that House ought not to be encreased. He hoped the House, be. , fore they parted with this Bill, would take care to strike some placemen from the rank of Ministers. The system Of adding to placemcn in that House had been creeping on —witness the case of the Vice-Treasurer of Ireland. There were two offices, that of Chancellor of t h e D uc h y o f Lancaster anti Treasurer of the Navy, which might with great propriety by Act of .Parlia ment be blended with other mnrenumerousofficee. Something . of this kind should be done if they intended to pass this Res°- , luticrn 'in u satisfactory manner. Nothing was so desirable as that the Right lion. Gentlemen should he shielded from any degree of unpopularity, and he therefore deplored the manner in which this measure Inui been introduced. He hoped he should not be reduced to the necessity of voting against the Resolution, and he would therefore suggest that the Committee report progress, and ask leave t o s i t again , an d h e h a d no d ou b t but if the House was firm, ,Alinisters would find sonic expos dient to satisfy all parties. Sir JOHN NEWPORT said, that as the Paymaster ape penned now to be actually the efficient officer, there could be no gtiod reason why he should not be so in name as well as in effect. It would, however, be the better way to attach a le lacy of only 2,0001. per annum to the o ff ice of President of th e Board or lirade. The House ought not to be reduced to the necessity of proceeding in any manner which might seem to impeach the sense generally entertained of the merits of the Right Hon. Gentleman. • - Mr. Secretary CANNING rose and said, that he confessed he did not see how any difficulty could have arisen upon the present subject. The 'adoption of the resolution then before the Committee would not preclude the House front any future modification of the office of Treasurer of the Navy that might be thought advisable. The insinuation of the Hun. Member for Wareham was as far at least as he knew, utterly unreel:Weds It' lie argued the qttestion fairly he could not resist the ‘011141. , sion that the office of the President of the Board of Trade was one which aught to stand'upon its own footing. If the amerid ment should be carried, they would be wteltittig the two ttffices for ever. Lord ,Melville, it was true, had beets Treasurer of the Navy et the same time that he w a s Presideneof the Board of Controul. Rot the office of Treasurer . of the Navy had free quently, and even now, generally been held unconnected with any ether; Lord liarrowby had so ;held - It s' the Right Hen. Gentleman opposite had so held it; so had Mr. Sheridan; it' had he himself. In all these instanees It had been held without any office whatever. The duties of the office were in fact .VO' rictus and important. The Right lion.

COMMITTEE 'CL)I THE CIVIL LIST BILL. 'The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved 'that the House should resolve itself into a Committee on the Civil List Bill, for the. purpose of taking into their consideration the Res°littion submitted .to the Committee last night, for granting a salary of 5000/. annually to the person holding the office' of President of the Board of Trade. Mr: HUME rose to Inquire whether the Right Hon. Gentle man had yet ascertained whether he had means for supplying this new salary to an officer hitherto unpaid by the country, without increasing its burdens at s period when, all classes felt peculiarly the necessity of increased economy. If that assist. mice could not be given hint, he should oppose the Speaker's leaving the Chair. In fact it would be little short of dishonesty in the House to consent to tho creation of a new salary without this assurance. No spendthrift even would presume to set up a new carriage to please hie turn for extravagance without first inquiring-where thC . Money ,was to come front to pay foiNh. He for his past could have no manner of of to lt, tbr instance if it were taken nut of the enornmus revenues of the Bishopric of Durham—(A laugh.)—Those revenues were granted for re- . ligirms.ohjects and.purposes, very different indeed front those to which they were now applied, and were never intended 'to make any one man so preposterously rich at the expence of an injured canimunity. The CHANCELLOR of. the EXCHEQUER observed, that whatever connection therit Wight he between the Offices of Treasurer of the Navy and Pcesident of the Board of Trude, there could-be no poisible connection except in the Honourable. Member's Mind, between the 4alary of the President of the Board of Trade and the over,glyWn Revenue of the deceased Bishop.--(A laugh.)—lndeed nothing would astonish his Right Hon. Friend more than ,to hear front any doe that it walfr /40- posed he'should receive his f o t ure sa l ar y out of the spOils of the Bishoprick. He could see no object th3t would be attained by discussing the subject on the motion for the Speaker's leaving the Chair. The disett,ision. would be much more in place in the Committee, and iftlte Hon. Member would permit him to go into the Committee, and resume there the subject, be would be equally at liberty- to enter into the detail of his rea sons for «.,;;4ting to the . proposed Resolutions.—(Cries .Of Hear, hear!) 3lr. RU3tE consentetl to withdraw his oppesition to going inta a Committee, and,tbe Motion watt agreed to. PRESMENT OP'THE BOARD OF TRADE. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in the Com mittee then moved a rerole9sit, similar to that of the preced ing evening, for granting's 4,000/. a year to the Pre sident of ttte Board of Trade Mr. H U3IE re-stated his'llbjection to the Resolution briefly. - The CHANCELLOR of th€ EXCHEQUER began by , assuring the Hon. Member thy there was rum ground whatever for the supposition that by thpi grant the House war' indirectly sanctioning the continuance at a large salary of a sinecure office, namely, the Treusurship of the Nary. That office, he assured him, was any thing but a sit3eeure. Its ("mita consisted not only in a reference to him of sit payments ors account of the NaTy, and a chain of responsibilities for all the officers in the 'different offices under hint, tut his duties had been much Ins creamed of late years by the additional labour required at his hands in protecting the interests of Reasnen's legatees, wives, and children, who, until tioteeregulations as to s, , unett's wills, were constantly made a sscrifice to an infamous and worthless race of wretches who plutaler the sailor ." relatives by every species of abomi n able fraud—(len? !)—of that property which never had be e n d es i gne d for their benefit. On such subjects there was n a tu ra ll y a gref 4 deal of inquiry necessary, and he had known a long and- tedious investigation take place be fore the Treesorer coild feel himself justified in paying to a claimant a paltry sum of twenty shillirge without prejudic e , perhaps, to some poor family in a distant part of the king dont. It WWI true that . a lmost any office might be made sinecure by t h e prtricipid, if be chose, or could safely resign the dutitar to deputies, and neglected the (+urge reposed in him, A compar isen b a d been drawn between this office a nd the Paym asters hi p o f t h e Navy, but it should. b e reeo l. lected that office imposed no responsibility for the money, so paid as this did. If the House thought fit to impose on this ()Mier the duties of the Treasurer, th e n i t wou l d only be right' the Haase should c infer on him, with this new pecuniary and moral responsibility, an incrtitsed salary equal to the duties'of the rt:splsnsibility. It never could be expected to be done at the protest N avy of LOW. a-year which he held, and so far that which the Hon. Members opposite - wanted, ni""IY, a saving of the public money, could not be obtained. Now he confessed he wits not prepared, RR soon as time question of salary as to this otlide war mooted, to extingui s h anot h er office merely be cause i t happened to beheld by the same person Whose inco me was the subject o f eonsideration, Althou g h, th e office of.
